Identify DAX Measures consuming too long to process

I have a tabular model on Visual Studio where data size is normal. It use to take 35-40 min to refresh 1 month back but someone added/modified few DAX Measures. Since then it is taking too long too refresh data. I want to indentify measures which are causing this issue. I have used these measures in Power BI reports too. How can I findout these measures so my model can be efficient and start refreshing normally.

Connect DAX Studio to your tabular model and check the Query plan and Server Timings for these measures.

Also I need to know that can my partitions be slow due to data fetching is taking place from a view which has a quite complex query and mulitple joins?

Same answer - use DAX Studio 

Hi @lbendlin, thanks for responding. I want to know one more thing here that I have few calculated columns inside my tabular model I want to evaluate those too. How can I perform testing on it?
